I hope this is not a duplicate post on my part but here goes:
For eddiebmauri: I have a Reevu MSX1 full-face helmet. I have found it to be
not only useful but a quieter helmet than my previous SHOEI RF1000 or my HJC
CL16. It cuts road noise pretty well, great wind protection, plus you have
the added rear-view system that works well adding to your ability to scan
things behind you (excellent field of vision). Rear view system works well
day or night, no electronics, no glass, just costumed/quality reflective
services engineered to provide a rear view. Adjustable optics. Ventilation
is not too bad. I don't have trouble with fogging because ventilation allows
for clear shields and mirror. I added a Scala Rider Bluetooth headset and
when I need some quiet to chat with my wife on the commute, closing the
shield makes a nice quiet bubble to talk in.
My riding is primarily highway, about 12k annually all seasons (except for
snow and ice). I've been down to 9 degrees (-21 with windchill) and over 103
degrees in the summer (A bit warm in the summer but I'm OK with it.). The
winter is it fine plus I typically wear a Schampa balaclava to help
insulate. The cost is about comparable to a SHOEI , a little cheaper than an
ARAI; to me too many benefits to pass up. You can get them from Revzilla or
altimategear.com ( both charge $399.99). DOT and ECE compliant and AMA
approved. They are used on the racing circuits as well as other riding
venues. I been using it over a year now and will not go back to a
conventional helmet.
